AuthMeMessages

What’s New

Premium Verification System (new)

- New /premium command: the player confirms twice within a 30-second window, then the account is verified against Mojang's API asynchronously (never blocks the main thread). - If the account is premium → it's saved to premium.yml, a confirmation title/sound is shown, and the player won't need to log in again. - If it's not premium → the player is kicked with a configurable kick message (now built as a modern Component instead of the deprecated kickPlayer(String) method on Paper). - If Mojang doesn't respond (timeout, 429, no connection) → the error is reported and the player is not kicked over a temporary API failure. - New admin command /authmemessages premium <add|remove> <player> to manage the list manually. - New PremiumManager, which persists the premium player list in premium.yml (names stored lowercase to avoid duplicates). - Auto-login for players marked as premium: if they join without being authenticated, the plugin registers them (with a random password) and logs them in automatically. - New placeholder %authmemessages_is_premium% (plus its customizable version is_premium_YES_NO).

Bedrock Player Support (Geyser/Floodgate)

- Bedrock players are detected via reflection (BedrockUtil), without a hard dependency on the Floodgate library. - They're automatically marked as premium when using /premium, skipping the Mojang check (their identity is already guaranteed by Xbox Live login). - New bedrock_only: true / java_only: true filters to target messages to each platform specifically. - Fixed a bug where the [Bedrock] tag broke internal console commands (e.g. in Multiverse).

Full HEX Color Support

- New ColorUtil, which translates &#RRGGBB codes into real RGB color in addition to the traditional & codes.

BossBars

- New temporary, configurable BossBars (color, style, duration) for login, register, logout, and logout-without-authentication.

Delays Between Actions

- New wait: TICKS action to pause between messages, sounds, or commands and build timed sequences.

Smart Config Auto-Update

- When updating the .jar, the plugin detects new keys from the bundled config.yml and automatically adds them to the user's file without erasing their custom edits. - The /authmemessages reload command now also reloads the premium.yml list in case it was edited by hand.

Bug Fixes

- Memory leaks / ghost tasks: the periodic cleanup tasks (AuthListener, AuthMePlaceholders, PremiumCommand) are now properly cancelled on /authmemessages reload or plugin disable, instead of continuing to run in the background. - Global placeholders broken in HolographicDisplays: placeholders like total_online used to fail when queried without an attached player; the player == null check was moved after evaluating them so holograms can read them. - `is_first_join` cleared too early: it's now unmarked only on quit (onQuit) instead of at login time, so it stays true for the whole first session. - Infinite recursion in placeholders: the isAuthenticated and isRegistered lookups were split apart to prevent loops when they queried each other. - Native auto-login wasn't firing welcome messages: the old handlePremiumAutoLogin was replaced with verifyLoginState/notifyLogin, which detects any player authenticated via Floodgate, forceLogin, or another auto-login plugin, guaranteeing login messages are never missed (with a cooldown to avoid duplicates if the normal event does fire shortly after). - More robust premium registration/login: they now run in separate try/catch blocks, so if pre-registration fails (e.g. a false negative from isRegistered()), the forced login is still attempted instead of aborting the whole process. - `/reload` left stale references: the listener and the placeholder expansion are now correctly re-registered, updating the plugin's internal reference via reflection. - `/premium` actions now use the same engine as login/register/logout: every premium message list now supports message:, centered_message:, playsound:, title:, player:, console:, wait:, and to_all:, not just plain text.

Migration Notes

- The premium.yml file is automatically created in the plugin's folder the first time the premium system is used. - The /authmemessages command now requires the authmemessages.admin permission defined in plugin.yml (the premium subaction didn't exist before this version). - Check your config.yml: although your existing values are preserved, the auto-update will add the new keys (premium-*, geyser, bossbars, etc.) the first time the plugin starts. ```
